Member-Guest Show and Solo Exhibits
The main floor of the gallery is devoted to newly created work by artist members and invited non-member artists. This is an exciting opportunity to view the imaginativeness and talent of diverse local artists in an intimate exhibition space and to meet with the artists at the opening reception.

Additional shows are in galleries on the 2nd floor:
The exhibit by Genti Bushi is entitled, “Shapes and Emotions.” Simplified shapes on a neutral background achieve emotional depth and dynamism through the interplay of shapes, colors and lines. A native of Albania, Bushi has pursued his interest in painting since early childhood. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Tirana in 1992, and has been living in the United States since 2001.
Pastel paintings of animals, birds and flowers comprise “Wild and Fancy,” the solo exhibit by Virginia Briatico. Her inspiration often comes from viewing Lake Garda’s wildlife from her nearby Farmington residence. Visitors to her birdbath and feeder, flowers from her garden, and various animals and pets are also subjects of her artwork. Briatico’s pastels are in several galleries in Connecticut, and in 2014 she was a solo artist at The Stanley Whitman House in Farmington.
The Spotlight Gallery features paintings and sculptures by Bill Doyle, an artist whose work is a regular feature in our outdoor sculpture garden.

Please join us for the gala opening reception Saturday, May 28th from 6:00-9:00 pm with refreshments. The reception is free and open to the public.

The Gallery on the Green, established in 1960, is the longest running artists’ guild in Connecticut. Housed in a schoolhouse (circa 1872), it is the fourth building to occupy this site. There are three spacious galleries and an outdoor sculpture garden. The gallery is located near the intersection of Dowd Avenue and Route 44 at 5 Canton Green Road in Canton. Hours are Friday – Sunday, 1-5 pm. The main floor gallery is handicapped accessible. Tel. 860-693-4102
